distributed throughout Part of a 6-volume Jane Austen series
including Northanger Abbey, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and
Sensibility, Mansfield Park, and Emma At twenty-seven, Anne Elliot
is no longer considered young enough for worthy romantic prospects.
Eight years earlier, she had been persuaded by her friend Lady
Russell to break off her engagement to Frederick Wentworth, a
handsome naval captain with neither fortune nor rank. What
transpires when they encounter each other again is movingly told in
Jane Austen's last completed novel. A brilliant satire of vanity
and pretension, Persuasion is, above all, a love story tinged with
the heartache of missed opportunities. Persuasion by Jane Austen is
one of six titles completing the Jane Austen collection, which
includes Emma, Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice,
Mansfield Park, and Northanger Abbey.
